First boot of my Raspberry Pi.

Was going to fire up my Raspberry Pi for the first time yesterday but had issues creating boot SD card for it on Windows 7. As you can see here from my post at the Pi Forum.

Looks like it was either problems with my desktop or the SD Card reader I was using as it was getting write errors when using the two Windows methods of creating the boot image.

Hopefully I can get the SD card reformat with GParted so I can try again, most annoying that I tripped up at the first hurdle.

Been playing with Onlive game cloud/ streaming service for the last few months and I am pretty pleased with the results.

Not only does it work fine with the wired desktop and wifi laptop at home, I've also played some games on my Motorola Atrix, although I'd need a bluetooth controller to make full use of it on the phone.

Taken this morning at around 5am in Leeds.

Using Instagram on my Android phone.

It finally arrived, my Raspberry Pi, lots of geeky fun awaits.

Can't believe how small it is :)
